    When did you start supporting the Albion?

    Possibly the worst poll I have seen on here. Pre Clough is from 1900ish to 1974 and the next 35 years are split in to four fantastic high periods in our history. I don't think any of us choose when we start following the club; it's a mixture of family influence and accident of birth date...

    The Giant Crane over at Falmer.

    They don't use tower cranes in winds over about 25mph (I believe); I'm not sure about the mobile ones on site. But the contractor will have allowed within in his programme for losing a few days due to high winds. Of course if it was windy for a long period of time they could claim for an...

    Jack Straw's Falmer Watch No 43B (16/10/09)

    It's a building site; a bit of glass is the least of their worries. Also there is no topsoil as that was removed before any works commenced. Demolition Contractors have to recycle materials as appropriate and within the guidelines; let's leave it to them to work it out.

    New Falmer Timeline

    We are not JUST building a football stadium. There is a huge amount of infrastructure works including demolishing and rebuilding a brighton Uni building, new access roads, a new bridge over the railway line - the clue being that this is costing £66m to build. And to £66m in two years is not an...

    "the stadium is on target for the start of the 2010/11 season"

    The roof was re-designed before the Contract was placed with Buckingham; at the time there was a sharp rise in steel prices globally hense the the re-design. But we have fixed the Contract Sum with Buckingham and unless we change anything there will be no change to the price. And the cost of...

    £97 million WHAT

    I think people are getting confused over construction cost and total development cost. The Stadium costs circa £65 million, the rest of the monies are land acquistion costs, professional fees, legal, fees, fit-out costs and VAT etc etc... The £90 odd million is not a new figure - it's been...

    Insider getting cross?

    I totally agree with what the Insider is saying here. At the end of the day the main contract has been placed with the Buckingham Group and it is up them and them alone to decide when steel orders are placed. As I understand it the contract is a Design and Build Contract whereby the Contractor...

    Anyone got a new mini?

    I had an '03 Copper S for 3 years - great fun to drive. Basically a luxury go-cart. Very fast and handles well. I had run flat tyres and the sports suspension so after a couple hundred miles driving in one go you felt like you had been rallying! How expensive are they now as they were really...

    It's a goal - internet footie game

    The ref had a mare. You should have had a player sent off in the last minute too. I'm still confidant we can move out of the relegation zone. The players have to believe in themselves more...
